The first D&D boxed set I got for Christmas 1979 (Holmes rules) contained the B2 module and a set of dungeon geomorphs. Once we learned the rules, I used the geomorphs to create massive multi-level dungeons.
ReplyDeleteWhat I did not know until very recently was that how similar the geomorphs are to Gary's own original Castle Greyhawk. I'd heard that he carried CG notes in a binder, but I've never seen a clear picture of any level of it til now.
Great article - like your broken down discussion of dungeon features, and the high quality images of Greyhawk levels 1 and 3 : )
